Thus spoke spare countryman in the Of

The follow pulled OF his boots and stepped
on 70 the scales. He tipped them at 126, just
under the weight that Uncle Sam wanted for
a man of his height.
The blue coated soldier broke the news tn
him as gently as he could; but the iron en-

BABY HUM0RS
And all Skin and Scalp Diseases
Speedily Cured by Cuticura.

Our little son will be four. years of age on
the 18th inst. In May, 1885, he was attacked
with very painful breaking out of the skin.
We called in Il physician who treated him
for about four weeks. The child received lit.
tie or no good from the treatment, as the
breaking out, supposed by the physician to be
hives in an aggravated form, became larger
IN blOtChes, and more and more distressing.
We were frequently obliged to get up in the
night and rub him with soda in water strong
liniments, etc. Finally, we called other ply
sicians, until no less than six had attempted
to cure him, all alike failing, and the child
steadily getting worse and worse, until about
the 10th of last July, when we began to give
him CUTICURA RESOLvENT internally, and the
CUTICURA and CUTICURA SOAP externally, and
by the last August he was so nearly well that
we gave him only one dose of the ResOlvent
about every second day for about ten days
longer, and he has never been troubled since
with the horrible malady. In all we used less
than one half of bottle of Cuticura ResOv-
ent, a little less than one box of Cuticura, and
only one cake of Cuticura Soap.

full semi-tiuid envelope surrounding the deli
cate tissues Of the air and food passages that
Catarrh makes its stronghold. Once estaD-
lshed, it eats into the very vitals, and renders
life but long-drawn breath of misery and
disease, dulling the sense of hearing, tram
melting the power of speech, destroying the
faculty of smell, tainting the breath, and kill
ing the refined pleasures of taste. Insidous-
ly, by creeping on from simple cold in the
head, it assaults the mcmbranous lining and
enyelops the bones, eating through the deli
cate coats and causing Inflammation. slough
ing and death. Nothing short of total eradi-
cation will secure health to the patient, and
all alternatives are simply prOoTastinated suf-
ferings, leading to fatal termination. SAN

peptic countrymen and women sigh I'm vain,

pepsia. The man of humbug is constantly
glutted with the dollars and dimes of those
who resort TO one nostrum after another in
the vain hope of obtaining relief, at least
from this veXatious and obstinate malady.

Bitters as a means of Graduating dyspepsia,
in which q firm reliance can be placed. No
remedy has in three decades and over estab-

regulates the bowels, kidneys and bladder.

The democratic manipulatOrs who
placed that obnoxious presidential por-
trait In the way OF the G. A. K. process
sion at Wheeling builded wiser than
they thought for the interests of repub-
licanism In Virginia. The democrats
may think differently. The placing OF
the Cleveland banner on that line OF
march was a deliberate affair and no
doubt intended to insult the procession,
as the feeling of the G. A. X. towards
the chief magistrate who had so grossly
insulted them as an organization is very
well known. This placing Of the Obnox-
iOus banner In the line Of march was the
offensive act and for that act the G. A.
X. are not responsible. Gov. FOraker's
prompt defense OF the act Of the old
veterans, who had braved a thousand
battles and thousand scars in defense
OF American nationality, will OF course
be resented by Cleveland dough-faces at

as the south, but the ex-cOnfederate SOL

LFTAN STANFORD is sustained by the
opinion of the United States supreme
court in his refusal to make known to
the Pacific railway commission the con-
tents of private correspondence, and the
manner in which certain funds were ex-
pended. The court refuses to make an
order compelling officers to answer Ques-
lions, or compelling them to give the
commission access to all their books.
This is a victory for the Union Pacific
road, and demonstrates quite fully that
Senator Stanford was acting wholly with
in the limit Of his rights when he re-
fused to answer certain questions of the
commission.
